Marshal Bazaine going to his trial at the Grand Trianon, Versailles, 1873. 'The letters of our Paris Correspondent will relate the progress from day to day of Marshal Bazaine's trial by the court-martial, upon the indictment preferred by order of the National Assembly against him for misconduct in his surrender of the imperial army and fortress at Metz three years ago...[Our] front-page Engraving shows Marshal Bazaine, as he may be seen any day when the Court sits, going through the corridor to attend his trial; behind him walk his two legal advocates, Maitre Lachaud père and Lachaud fils, with Colonel Villette, their assistant upon the details of military business. A couple of gendarmes form the guard which daily conducts this distinguished State prisoner to and fro between the Grand Trianon and the ville of Trianon-sous-Bois, where he resides under arrest pending his trial'. From "Illustrated London News", 1873.
